For all you Americans who like to complain about the democrats candidates, maybe join the party and vote on primaries. Maybe do something other than just wait around until they feed you the candidate they picked without your input. Maybe start changing up the party from within and at the entry level, by voting on primaries and volunteering for the progressive candidates that want to overthrow the party career politicians. Look at what New York did! If they had waited around and not cared about primaries, they would have gotten Cumo and complained. I hear a lot of complaining about the democrats on Lemmy, sometimes you guys blame them more than Republican. But if you don’t vote or register as a democrat then you don’t matter to them. Make yourselves heard before the actual elections

I would LOVE to do that but I am constrained by rent obligations and a blind wife.

It doesn't stop you from voting in primaries, it's free actually, and there is no eye tests for family members.

Oh I misunderstood; I was referring to actually running for office

Yeah, that requires dedication and free time and resources very few people have.
